Holidays such as Veterans Day and Memorial Day celebrate the heroism, courage, and honor of American service members. October third should be the day Americans remind themselves of the true horrors of needless wars.
The money voted by the House of Representatives covered everything that the government does, except for ObamaCare. If Senator Reid and President Obama refuse to accept the money required to run the government, because it leaves out the money they want to run ObamaCare, that is their right. But that is also their responsibility.
If the government’s goal is equality in medical care, Obamacare will eventually achieve it: equal suffering for all.

Why — at a time in our history when guns were readily available, when a person could just walk into a store or order a gun through the mail, when there were no FBI background checks, no waiting periods, no licensing requirements — was there not the frequency and kind of gun violence that we sometimes see today, when access to guns is more restricted?
The fact that honesty and trust are so vital should make us rethink just how much tolerance we should have for criminals and dishonest people.
The time, effort and credibility that Republicans are investing in trying to defund ObamaCare is a high risk, low yield investment.
